Pistons' Killian Hayes: Steps into starting role

Hayes will start Wednesday at Sacramento, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

Hayes will take the place of Cade Cunningham (knee) in the starting lineup for the first leg of a back-to-back set. While he's started 30 games this season with Detroit, Hayes had received DNP-CDs in three straight games, so he may not be locked into a massive workload despite his starting status.
